M33 Down Low
Another one from last night,. M33 again a very low target so I only got 10 X 5 minute exposures. All subs were fully calibrated and stacked using IP3 and finished using CS3.
Images taken with QHY8 cooled CCD through a Vixen VC200L at F6.4 1200mm.

Nice one Doug. The QHY8 and the VC200L sure is a great combo.

Nice image of this low altitude, low surface brightness galaxy, showing good detail.
Well done Doug.
